Marion County Garbage Burner

(Brooks, OR) -- The ReWorld waste-to-energy facility in Brooks will stop taking waste from Marion County on December 31st. The County Commission says that'll cause garbage rates in unincorporated parts of the county to increase. Residential rates will go up two-and-a-half percent. The cost to dump medical waste will increase 70 percent. Garbage will now go the Coffin Butte Landfill in Benton County, but it's expected to run out of space in a few years.
